  1. as I thought the 90s were in a league of their own
  2. LGA area has also gotten much hotter and much more built up. They always bake early in the morning too-- I never trust temperatures from that part of the city. Best approach is to use an average of all area sites EWR,JFK,NYC,LGA
  3. 1993 was like this too-- there was just one 90 degree day in late May....and then it was in the 60s just before July 4th lol. And then we all remember what happened afterwards, a superheatwave of historic proportions with three days over 100 in NYC in a row and give in a row over 100 at EWR. EWR had a stunning total of 9 days of 100+ that year!
  4. I saw a Lee Goldberg forecast for "variable cloudiness"-- the good thing is totality lasts for an hour and a half so there should be some time in there to see it. Sometimes I wish the moon was closer to us than the clouds are lol
  5. They're really becoming more humid, looks the heat has stabilized since 2010, it hasn't gotten any hotter than it was that year and plateaued lower than 2010 (but higher than it was in the 2000s)....some of this seems to be cyclical since the 1990s were hotter....think of all the 90 degree records we set in the 1990s (1991, 1993, 1995, 1999 were all amazingly hot).
  6. Dry hair is coming from the High pressure to our north thankfully, creating these spectacular clear pristine blue skies and low humidity!
  7. Don an early forecast for the eclipse would be nice to see! Frame of time for totality is 11:30 PM Sunday night to 1 AM Monday. Would my location on Long Island be better for it or the one in NE PA? Thanks!
  8. record breaking heat in Texas too
  9. I love this! Can you do one just like this for JFK please with the same 4 columns included? How far back does their temperature record go?
  10. I want the best of both... a dry heat!
  11. love the low humidity, I could work with this all summer
  12. I'd rather have good weather for that eclipse.
  13. That's bad for the eclipse! And it sounds like the month will end up below normal. Is this how nature balances the scales after we get a mild winter? Seems to happen quite often. Also, how is it this kind of thing almost never happens in winter? At least I don't ever remember this ever happening in winter.
  14. How long does it take a storm to "die" or dissipate if it doesn't move at all? 10 days?
  15. according to the marketing for the forecasts, they use a "custom blend of in house models not available to the general public for enhanced accuracy"
  16. Might clear up just in time for the eclipse
  17. I wonder if this La Nina can keep going beyond next winter too. Now that would be unprecedented.
  18. What I don't get is that they are acting like they are helpless to do anything about it-- when there is such an easy solution. Trim or chop down the excess foliage! What exactly is keeping them from doing that?
  19. it was 45 degrees here at 3 PM in the afternoon yesterday, that's outrageous lol
  20. That 43 in 2018 stands out like a sore thumb-- that must be some kind of record at our latitude. Oh a better question to ask might be, how many times has JFK beat either NYC or LGA in 90 degree days?
  21. The Battery sounds more like JFK climo lol
  22. This isn't as cold as the airmass we had in May 2020 when it snowed down to the coast is it?
  23. whats causing all these cutoffs-- the blocking is in the process of going away isn't it? if that works out it doesn't look so good for the total lunar eclipse
  24. why can't we get a west wind already?
  25. Chris, has JFK ever had the most 90 degree days? They were close to the lead in a few of those years.
